I had the pleasure of spending a couple of days with some of you in 2007, with a couple of my former Ballard colleagues (I was the PR person; they were adding practical value in engineering support!). I remember then your dedication, focus and commitment to what you were doing (proved, in part, by your obvious lack of sleep and heavy fast food consumption). Thrilled to see the dream still lives and breathes. Congratulations, all of you, on another great success!

Buckeye Bullet

The student run team is based out of the Center for Automotive Research at The Ohio State University. Currently the team is in the process of designing a brand new land speed vehicle. This new vehicle branded the Buckeye Bullet 3 is anticipated to be significantly faster than previous cars. In the summer of 2010, the team built a battery powered land speed streamliner (BB2.5), that broke the previous world record held by the Buckeye Bullet 1. Each of the vehicles are run on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah.
